The Last of the Cumoms and Cureloms

After the last decisive battle between the Nephites and the Lamanites, the Nephites were defeated. Bundling up the Gold and Brass Plates along with the Sword of Laban, a Liahona, the Holy Grail, and the Spear of Destiny, Moroni headed north to Canada to bury these precious artifacts. He only made it to Upstate New York. In a hill named Cumorah, he buried the relics and then expired. It would be many centuries before these ancient relics would be discovered.

Afterward, the Nephite's faithful partners in the New World, the Cumoms and Cureloms were beside themselves with grief. As a fitting tribute, the Cumoms and Cureloms gathered all evidence of the Nephite Culture over the Nephite's 800-year span and gave it a proper burial at sea. Still feeling the acute loss, the Cumoms and Cureloms set sail toward a new land which they hoped would assuage their grief. The new land promised to be a glorious redemption for their sadness so they named it Easter Island.

Cumoms and Cureloms

Here is a snippet from a poem in which they bid farewell to the Americas:

Farewell, friends! The sails are set,
the wind is west, the moorings fret.
Shadows long before us lie,
beneath the ever-bending sky,
but islands lie behind the Sun
that we shall raise ere all is done;
islands there are to west of West,
where night is quiet and sleep is rest.


Once they arrived at Easter Island, the Cumoms and Cureloms carved the huge stone heads of famous Nephites of the past before they also passed into legend.

Maybe the Book of Mormon happened in a parallel universe! That is why none of the DNA matches supports it. ;)

Maybe Santa Claus lives in a parallel universe.

My bosom is burning. I Just know know it's true!
